The latest plastic surgery trend is causing a stir for copying K-Pop idols’ signature 90-degree shoulder look. BIGBANG’s G-Dragon, BLACKPINK’s Jennie, and aespa’s NingNing inspired this new obsession with “shoulder filler.”
The procedure minimizes the trapezius muscles to create sharply angled shoulders that fans associate with these idols. Both men and women are rushing to get the look to emulate their favorite stars’ physiques.
But netizens are not impressed.
“If it spreads, won’t it go down into your traps and upper arms?”
“Geez… I’d rather use that money to work out and build them myself.”
“If you really go hard on shoulder workouts at the gym, you can build them.”
Critics warn this trend could be dangerous and only adds fuel to Korea’s already booming plastic surgery epidemic.
“At this rate, people are going to end up getting fillers all over their bodies.”
“Seriously… people will do anything these days…”
“I saw this on Instagram a few months ago and was so shocked. It turns out a surprising number of people actually get this procedure?? If they’re injecting enough filler to shape the shoulder, just how much are they putting in??”
The controversy is gaining traction online as the trend spreads fast. Fans and skeptics alike are monitoring the situation closely.
